Anecdotes of Logan.

Amember of the old Thrty-fifth Hi
uois tells a little story of the Belmont
attack and victory which illustrates
Loean's dash and energy. SAID he:
I'VE embarked at Cairo on transports
and landed secretly a few miles above
Belmont. The Rebels were in force at
Columbus and at Belmont, nearly OPP
posite Columbus. We swOoped down on
the Belmont outfit and, after a sharp
fioht, cleaned out the town. In those
DAYS, The ,arlv part of the war. when
ever body of Union troops had light
and won it it was thought TO be the
thing to have great blowout, celcbrat-
inc the event with speeches and bon
fires and music and all that. The Bel
mont victory was no exception. We
had q great time that night. Gen.
McClernand made Il roaring speech,
and so did Logan, believe. We had
great bontireS and an extra supper and
all the bands out, and kept it up till
pretty near daylight. Then it was
found that during the night, while we
were celebrating, the Rebels had land
ed IL big force from Columbus TO our
side of the river, and cut us off COM
petely from our transports. We were
dazed at this, and in II mighty tight
place. Logan was the first to realize IT,
and, after some discussion, he got per-
mission from McCIcrnand to try to cut
his way through the Rebel Gordon and
open the road to the transports This
was done in a bayoner charge, and was
one of the most gallant feats of the
war.
Logan next appeared with his regi.
ment in the army in the attack on Forts
Henry and Donelson. In assaulting
the latter stronghold the Thirty-lirst
was literally cut 10 pieces, the loss be-
ing something like $50. The Leuien-
ant-Colonel was killed, and Logan HIM
self was shot in the left breast, and was
carried off the field for dead. 1t was
his gallantry in this action that won
him the single star, and in March, 1862,
he reported to Grant ut Pittsburg Land
ing a Brigadier-Gencral.
While lying wounded at Fort Donel-
son his devoted wife literally forced her
way to his bedside and nurscd him
through it all. On the cot adjoining
his, with their toes almost touching,
lay Col. William r. Morrison, present
Congressman, who, while leading the
Forty ninth Illinois in the same battle,
got an ugly wound. Mrs. Logan divd-
ed her attention between the two men,
and her nursing soon put them both in
the saddle. To the day of Logan's
death, he and Col. Morrison were bosom
friends and both enthusiastic admirers
of the lady who forced her way through
Il barricade of red tape to their cots at
Fort Donelson.

As to Whiskers.

Two fallacies are in vogue regarding
the whisker question. One is that a
thin-faced man should support side
whiskers to widen his face; the other
that a round-faced fat man should favor
long chin whiskerS to lengthen his face.
Both are adopted on the counteraction
and antidote principle, but are wrong
as wrong can be. A man with a sharp
chin exposed is thin and appears thin
in spite of his Burnsides And moon
shaped man gives himself humorous
and clownish appearance by wearing a
long, sharp tuft on his chin. The prin-
ciple of conformity should be observed
or Il wholesale change made. A thin
man, for instance, should not wear chin
whiskers, no whiskers at all, or beard.
He no more looks we'll with side whis-
kcrs and peaked chin than he would
to stuff his chest and not his cheeks and
calves. To look we'll he must be uni
formly and consistently thin, or he NAV
modify it by a complete beard. A fat
man sould be smooth-faced or wear uni
versal whiskers pretty closely cropped.
The well-prOportioned and moderately
full-faced man may vary the style and
quantity of his whiSkers with impunity
so far rs the thin or broad appearance
is concerned. A very short beard gives
an animal look; if very large it indi-
Gates vanity or crankiness.- - Cincinnati

The Typical American-Lincoin.

At the New England dinner in New

editor OF the Atlanta Constitution, re-
ferred to Abraham Lincoln as the first
typical American:
Pardon me one word. Mr. President,

gallantry. and we will hold no contro-
verSy as to his merits. Why should we?
Neither Puritan or Cavalier long sur

Gitions of both happily still live for the
inspiration of their sons and the saving
of the old fashion. [Applause.] But

Practice Of Education.
Let it be remembered and stated that
no parent has the right to say that his
child shall remain ignorant. He has no
right to breed firebrands and death to
the society of which he is a part. and to
which he owes everything himself.
Here is the foundation of the right of
compulsory education on the part of the
State. american Journal Of EducU-
ton.
However able a teacher may be nat
urally, there must be many directions
in which he could proftably follow the
example set by the great body of the
profession; and no teacher can expect
to give satisfaction who blindly refuses
to adopt the discoveries of others-pro-
nouncing school meetings a bore, for
example, and throwing all circulars OF
suggestions into the e-basket.- g.
a. Ltttlefeld, Newport, r. l.
A system of education must have re-
gard to the characteristics of the human
mind as we'll as to the demands of
practical life, and at the same time not
forgetting the interests of pure science.
For this reason no fixed curriculum can
be arranged which will answer all pur-
poses, and yet, since mental develop

the system need not be so complicated
